I'll play. No pics I'd consider "great" yet, but my new Canon Rebel XTi should help.

Only thing worth noting here (from Parade '07) is the new Euro MO33s set between sport and RS. Shocks are Bilstein. That's Robert (of Joanne fame) parked next to me.

OK, now how 'bout some MY02s? Santa? You listenin'?

I like the first pic for color representation.

Only thing worth noting in the second pic (from Parade '07) is the new Euro MO33s set between sport and RS. Shocks are Bilstein. That's Robert (of Joanne fame) parked next to me.

OK, now how 'bout some MY02s? Based on the recent thread, it sounds like the Italian replicas ain't half bad. Santa? You listenin'?
nice pics...I did buy an XTi recently but returned it an hour ago. Nice camera....

Eric,

I didn't only go with the "S" rockers, I went wide to have them. The rockers come in three sections (kinda). One part goes on the front fender which needs to be cut and welded in, the second part under the door which also needs to be cut out and welded in, and finally the third part which can't be cut and welded in as it is a part of the rear wide body quarter panel. I don't recall the exact cost on the sheet metal, I think the front part of the rocker was like $25 per, the large part under the door was about $700 per, and the quarter was about $1000 per. Also, the rear wide body bumper was $1700 or so and the front turbo bumper I found local on craigslist for cheap. My parts came new from the local dealer with the exception of the front bumper, I can look it all up if you like, Gert sells a complete set with everything you need but with the exchange rate now it might be way costly.

Labor & paint depends on the shop, all I know is that my car took a hell of a long time to build (7 months) but came out spectacular. There is a lot of cutting and removing of parts, so much that it was kinda scary.

MidBlue looks awesome, especially after a nice detail.
